Text From One of Our Students

One of our students going on the trip has really stepped up and has been leading a prayer time for our trip every Sunday night for the past 4 months. Its incredible to see our students praying together (no adult leading) for the city of Juarez and the family we will be building for. Today, this student has started texting out prayer updates to everyone going on the trip. Here is today's prayer reminder. Will you join us in praying?

hey! read ecclesiastes 3: 1-14. please remember to pray for the suffering thats going on in Juarez right now. pray they find peace in God :)

Ecclesiastes 3:1-14 (New International Version)

A Time for Everything

¹ There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:

² a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,

³ a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,

⁴ a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,

⁵ a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,

⁶ a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,

⁷ a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,

⁸ a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

⁹ What does the worker gain from his toil? ¹⁰ I have seen the burden God has laid on men. ¹¹ He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. ¹² I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. ¹³ That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil—this is the gift of God. ¹⁴ I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that men will revere him.
